Watermelon Salad from Tastes & Treaures II

Watermelon Salad from the Wigwam Resort is a popular recipe in Tastes & Treasures II, page 137. Refreshing and easy for summertime parties and picnics, it bursts with flavor. Now that it is available in the book, we are seeing several versions at other restaurants but they don't compare to the Wigwam's  recipes!

Book available at HistorialLeague.org/SHOP.aspx and Amazon.com

The Wigwam Resort salad, on page 137, is bursting with flavors: roasted corn, cilantro, jalapeños, limes, red onion, and Cotija cheese. It is the perfect blend of ingredients for a SouthWest salad!!

Watermelon Salad from the Cov in Wayzata, MN. topped with pistachios and Mozzarella cheese, it is a pretty salad to serve.
